摘要

abstract imaging apparatus; resection apparatus for performing a resection procedure; imaging method; resection method for performing a resection procedure; computer imaging program; and resection computer program for performing a resection procedure the invention relates to an imaging apparatus (1). first and second image supply units (2, 9) provide a first image showing a region of an object, which includes a resection portion that must be resected, and a second image showing the region of the object after the resection procedure has been performed, or showing a resected part that has been resected. a lower margin determination unit (13) determines a lower margin region which is a region in which a margin between the resection part and the resected part is smaller based on the first and second images. The lower margin region is the region that probably contains a part of the object that should have been resected as a cancerous part. Optional investigation of the resected part or remaining object may be more focused with consideration of that region, thus allowing for faster corresponding evaluation procedures. 1/1
